Well, I am sitting in Physics Answered

I'm supposed to be working on my rocket project with my group, but we have a substitute today (hells yeah!) She's new to the school, which is good, because we are playing volleyball with a balloon, watching movies, and listening to music. Among our fun, we played Hangman on the SmartBoard, and popped balloons. Our rocket is about done, we just need to make a power-point as documentation, and we need to launch it, which we will do on friday!Oop! the bell just rang, cya in lunch!

you should have seen the "Volcano" I created for my science class, some 36 years ago. White flashes of magnesium white, smoke, flames at least 12 feet high, and what looked like real, white hot lava coming out the top it was nearly as hot as lava too :-) That wouldn't happen now a days

:-)

It wouldn't work in my living room, however it may in the right room, it could be a possible way of making lots of heat for a long time if the reaction was slowed down, I'm thinking a five year handwarmer...

hehe, that' be cool, got 25 pounds of sulphur and 25 pounds of iron filings, mix t up and bury... it'll do the rest over a month.
Oh also check out my latest 'ible, decking a house out for nought, it could apply to the bus pretty well

BTW: thanks for the compliment.....if I ever find another source of, um, pickling salt, I will do an instructable on it. I still remember how I did it, and the magnesium is not a necessary ingredient anyways.

Between marriages (nearly a year before I met someone) I went nearly berserk.....mopping the kitchen floor 3 times a week, etc. Of course, there was not proper internet available to one of my financial absence of means. :-) A modem and the bulletin boards were about it.
